    I had an oncoming Tacoma Gen 2 driver wave to me....

    ok owning Vettes and Harleys I get "the wave"....but from a pickup truck it was not expected..

    I waved back....so he either thought he saw someone he knows or maybe he owns other vehicles where "the wave" is expected and accepted

    I think it's lame regardless of what you are driving or riding. Hey we have the same interest so let's wave to each other. I like pussy, so I'll wave to every guy I walk past as well. WTF.

    Not everybody is on the same page! I just stare until you get the same back then wave. Not too many TW fans around my area as well. Only had one older guy stop me and compliment my Tacoma...
